  • 90. Your Uniform is Your Supernatural Power

    HERE'S HOW YOU CAN ATTRACT MORE OPPORTUNITY WITH LITTLE ADDITIONAL EFFORT....


    Supernatural is relating to an order of existence beyond the visible; it transcends the laws of nature.


    The uniform's appearance goes beyond how it looks. A first impression can last forever. This invisible agent that the uniform creates is sticky.


    Think about the differences between going into your local Starbucks and a downtown college coffee shop. There's nothing wrong with either, but the vibe is different from how they dress, service, and manage the shop.


    Spiker and Dave talk about the importance of the athlete's uniform and how it can provide and take the opportunity.

  • 87. A DEEP DIVE into a Non-Surgical Decision For Athletes (ft. Dr. Ravi Yadava)

    "What did the MRI say?"

    "I'm getting surgery."

    It seems like this is an occurring answer whenever you ask someone about the MRI. What if there was a non-surgical approach? This is the episode where I want to know the other option. 

    We have Dr. Ravi Yadava and Amy Morio of Performance Rehabilitation and Regeneration with us on the Closing Pitch. We DEEP DIVE into the possibility of an athlete staying away from career altering surgery.
